Before He’s One

Raleigh Studio Baby Photographer

I loooove Baby milestone sessions and getting to see how they grow and change in the first year. It was so sweet to see this little one and get to photograph him with his Mommy. He has an older brother, and it’s always so special to get portraits alone with your baby, too. (See his newborn portraits with his big brother here, so so precious!) I love how simple and neutral milestone sessions are, and they just focus on you + your baby. I love photographing all the details that change so quickly, little hands, little feet, all that baby chunkiness! Such a sweet morning with these two!

The calendar has been crazy this week..Ericka can hardly keep up with all the styling emails. We are trying to schedule everyone as fast as we can! That being said, if you have been thinking about booking a session and haven’t done it, please contact us as soon as possible. We also have a few spots left for our Spring Mommy and Me and Family minis, so send me an email (becky@rebeccakellerphotography.com) for more information. We are really looking forward to Spring and warmer weather!

Those Lashes

Raleigh Baby Studio Photographer

I love baby milestone sessions in the studio, and with the weather right now, it’s the perfect time for indoor portraits. Some days can be super warm and some are freeezing, it’s just hard to tell what the weather will be like this time of year. This little one was so absolutely adorable with his Mama, just wanting to snuggling her and giving us lots of laughs, too. So many precious portraits, can’t wait to share all of them!

Those Pearls

This little one is just so sweet and full of personality. She was just so animated for her session and love all of her different expressions. I love that her Mama got in at least one photo, too! Love all of this sweetness and her pearls, and that she brought her pretty pink blanket. Just precious.

According to Mom…

What are your little one’s favorite toys? Bouncy seat, blocks, rattles, anything music related or that she can put in her mouth! She’s teething

Is your little one talking? Any favorite words? “Baba” is what she says the most. We swear she’s saying “baba” when she wants a bottle!

Does she have any favorite foods? Sweet potatoes, blueberry baby yogurt, and of course, her bottles!

What is your favorite part of this stage/milestone? Her interest in the dogs, trying to talk and figuring our how to put toys together

What are your favorite places to shop for your little one? Old Navy, Amazon Prime!

Baby toys/gear you can’t live without? Sofie the giraffe and her bouncy seat

Dimples

Raleigh Studio Baby Photographer

This time of year can just be so unpredictable, and well, freezing cold. It’s kind of amazing the difference in temperatures from one day to the next in North Carolina. The studio is perfect for milestone baby sessions on cold winter days. This little one has been such a happy baby ever since her newborn portraits. And her two dimples are just so adorable! I can’t wait to share all of the images from her session, but here’s a few with that precious hat! I also love that her mama brought her pink handmade blanket. I really want one of these in my size (see here, and one of the best prices I’ve seen for the big ones)

The snow is melting and it’s back to school tomorrow. Time to stock up on pb+j, Owen’s favorite for his lunchbox. Also, organic applesauce + Annie’s Granola Barsare at the top of his list. I’m not one of those Mamas that just love shopping at the grocery store – I tend to avoid it at all costs. I will more than likely survive out of the freezer + the pantry than go to the store. (Read more about a pantry challenge here) Harris Teeter Express Lane is always great when I plan ahead. And instacart, shipt, or Amazon prime now in “emergencies.” So tomorrow it’s back to the grocery store and normal routines. This looks like a really yummy winter recipe to try!

All About Minnie

Wake Forest One Year Baby Photographer

I first met this sweet family when they came to our holiday minis. (So excited about this year’s! Booking will start wednesday! Be the first to know by signing up for our newsletter here) This sweet baby girl was just so happy for her one year portraits and giggled and giggled with her Mommy + Daddy. Her cake was just so pretty, and she sure loved putting her feet in it. She did let us know one thing for sure, she was not wearing the flower crown on her head. (And it was just so pretty!) Love all of the images of the three of them together celebrating her first birthday!

Who are the members of your family that we photographed? John, Kara, and Ivy (one)

Does your little one have any favorites? Ivy loves her big brothers and getting into anything she’s not supposed to!

What were your favorite parts of the session? I loved the candid moments captured and how there were so many emotions and facial expressions captured.

Tell me about the outfits that you wore the session. Ivy loves Minnie Mouse and so it made sense to make that her birthday theme! It has also been fun having super girly dresses and things after dressing 2 boys.

What are some words of wisdom you have for other Mamas preparing for a session? Have super low expectations and try to understand that your kids don’t understand yet why these are so important. Don’t be above bribing! Enjoy the sad or upset faces as much as the happy ones, they show all the different sides or your kids.

What baby gear has been your favorite during the baby’s first year? Baby carrier!

Do you have any pets/siblings? How do they get along with your little one? We have a cat that is the best in the world. Ivy loves to crawl on top of him and he just lays there! She makes a meow sound when she sees him!Greyson and Ryder both love their sister, and play with her very well. She watches them intently and can’t wait to be able to run with them! They can always make her laugh!
